• Seats with microlift must pass the test for 50 thousand open and close. If in a family of 2-3 people, everyone raises and lowers the seat at least 2-3 times a day, then their service life will be about 15 years. This is a higher indicator than that of similar products.

When choosing a toilet, you need to be guided not only by price or design, but also by other important criteria.

• Manufacturing material. Today toilets are made not only from faience, but also from porcelain, and you can also find plastic, stone and glass models.
• Height. To determine it, it is better to sit on the product - your feet should be on the floor, and not hanging in the air. If the muscles of your abdomen and lower back are well relaxed in a sitting position, then the chosen model is definitely suitable for you.
• Design. Products can stand on the floor, be suspended and look like floor attachments. Experts recommend buying hanging devices if your bathroom is low on space.

• Tank. The choice of the product tank may depend on the model chosen: it can be either floor-standing or suspended. When choosing, experts advise to make sure that the toilet and cistern are well fitted to one another and prepared for quick commissioning.
• Bowl. By their appearance, the products can be dish-shaped, visor and funnel-shaped. The disc design (with a small platform inside) has an anti-splash function. The most demanded design is the canopy. It has a small platform that goes into a funnel and prevents splashing water when flushed.
• The type of flushing of the liquid is direct and reverse. The reverse type of rinsing is more reliable, since the liquid washes the entire surface of the bowl.

• The type of fluid drain from the tank. There are systems with one button, two and aquastop. The most popular is the two-button mode, which saves water.
• A method for draining water into an existing sewer system. There are 3 ways in total: (less common) oblique, as well as vertical and horizontal types. The latter of the methods can often be seen in European models of sanitary structures. Oblique release is made by a pipe that is directed downward at an angle of 30-45 degrees.

In most cases, consumer reviews of Vitra plumbing are positive. All buyers note the convenience of the flush system and the anti-splash system, as well as the fact that the microlift smoothly lowers the lid, does not rattle, and it has become much easier to clean under the new toilet.

Those who have been using these products for more than one year note that during the operation they had no complaints about the purchased products. The water from the tank did not leak, the plaque did not collect, there was no noise when the liquid was quickly drawn into the tank.

For those who call compactness, comfort in use and value for money as the main criterion when choosing a toilet bowl, the Vitra toilet bowl will suit all characteristics. The plumbers' reviews are also extremely optimistic. The installation of many models of toilets is not labor-intensive, but there are also options, the installation of which is associated with additional repair of the bathroom.
